Can’t Afford the Mobile Phone You Need? Here’s How Cellucity Says Yes When Banks Say No

Can’t Afford the Mobile Phone You Need? Here’s How Cellucity Says Yes When Banks Say No

In today’s world, staying connected is essential. From work and education to managing finances or keeping in touch with loved ones, a reliable mobile phone is a lifeline for modern life.

But the reality is stark: not everyone can afford a new device upfront. With rising smartphone costs, many South Africans—especially those without access to traditional credit—face barriers to staying connected. It’s a challenge that can feel isolating.

What happens when you need a phone, but the bank says no?

At Cellucity, we believe everyone deserves options. That’s why we’ve partnered with trusted Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) services like PayJoy, LayUp, Mobicred, MoreTyme, Payflex, Float, and Happy Pay to offer adaptable mobile phone payment plans in South Africa—no rigid contracts or hefty upfront costs required.

Why Traditional Mobile Phone Contracts Don’t Work for Everyone

For years, mobile phone contracts have been the go-to for owning a smartphone—often 24-month commitments tied to credit checks and hidden fees. But these contracts exclude many South Africans.

Traditional financing demands a spotless credit history, formal employment, or steady income, sidelining students, freelancers, gig workers, entrepreneurs, and those in the informal economy. Even if you can manage monthly payments, the system often shuts you out.

Worse, contracts lock you into inflexible terms. A missed payment can harm your financial standing, leaving you stuck with outdated devices—or no phone at all.
